Henry VI, Part 1

By William Shakespeare

The world whirls out of control in Shakespeare's thrilling tale of Joan of Arc, the English warrior Talbot, and the young King Henry. From the funeral of Henry V that opens the play, to Joan's execution, 1 Henry VI is unrelenting storytelling and a brilliant opening installment in Shakespeare's account of the Wars of the Roses.

Playing January 29 through March 28 at the Blackfriars Playhouse.

"Displays of boundless energy, crisp interpretation and some of the best acting to be found" -- Charles Culbertson, Staunton News-Leader
